Held at Cygnet River Racecourse, Kingscote, the event is a favourite with locals. Entry is a gold coin donation and the day combines great country horse racing with superb Kangaroo Island food, awardwinning wines and live entertainment.
SeaLink is offering a Gourmet Gallop race-day package from Adelaide, Cape Jervis, Penneshaw or American River.
The package from Adelaide includes return coach travel to Cape Jervis, return SeaLink ferry and transport to the Kingscote Racecourse. It is priced at $152 per adult.
For those preferring to drive to Cape Jervis the package departing Cape Jervis is $108 per adult.
Some of the island's best foodies will sell dishes on the day, while exclusive Kangaroo Island wine and other beverages will help wash it all down.
Proceeds from gold coin donations at the gate will go to the Royal Flying Doctor Service.
SeaLink offers a range of other options including self-drive holiday packages plus accommodation and tours for those who want to extend their stay and see more of the island.
